Randomly choose a counter for a number

[OHMwake]

Hey guys,

I am trying to figure out how to randomly choose a counter to put a random value in.

The counters I am trying to do this in control how many enemies spawn at certain spawn points and control what is spawned. At this time I have just been manually telling it to randomly choose a number at the same time in each counter, but this is causing enemies to spawn overlaped.

Thanks for the help.

Here is an example of the current code I have.

At this time the spawner counters are given the Random() calculation manually under Enemy Waves >> Primary Enemy Counter. I have added events to spawn the enemy types at different intervals. I would like to just choose a spawner counter at random to give a random number to.

Put the same qualifier to all your counter objects. Then on the events pick one at random from the qualifier group. This should randomly select one from the counter objects and then you can put your actions.

Vaxx, you are awesome!

Here is what I did:

Set a qualifier on each counter like Vaxx suggested

Event:
Every 00"-20
Pick an object at random (found under 'create new objects')
- Set counter to Random(5)+1 (for the qualifier that was created above)
